I want to start off by saying this review does not reflect the nurses that provide the service. This review is about the administrative and management services. They are extremely disorganized, they provide erroneous information and with confidence and they leave the nurses in the position of consistently, not knowing what they’re coming to visit me for. I received services for two things: ostomy bag, change, and IV port cleaning. I have been receiving the services for well over two months. To this day whenever the nurses ca... read more
I want to start by saying the 1 star review does not reflect on the staff, they are beyond fantastic people. Now as far as the organization/logistics/management of the whole operation goes that’s a different story. I was discharged from the hospital and to receive IV antibiotics at home (self administered) for 6 weeks with supplies being delivered every Friday.

The nursing staff are very competent and friendly but the reliability for visits is absolutely TERRIBLE. I was released from the hospital to VON homecare.

Then at 1120pm the nurse called to advise that she couldn't make it but they would try to get someone over tomorrow morning. My wound was infected and was being changed twice da... read more
Staff are nice enough but what really bothers me is they never give you a time they are going to show up and that causes major stress and anxiety for me because I also get homecare in the evening and they can only stay so long before they have to leave. There has got to be a better way to do things.
